Abstract
Instructions and logic provide vector linear interpolation functionality. In some embodiments, responsive to an instruction specifying: a first operand from a set of vector registers, a size of each of the vector elements, a portion of the vector elements upon which to compute linear interpolations, a second operand from a set of vector registers, and a third operand; an execution unit, reads a first, a second and a third value of the size of vector elements from corresponding data fields in the first, the second and the third operand respectively and computes an interpolated value as the first value multiplied by the second value minus the second value multiplied by the third value plus the third value.
